 Week one of the new Mosaic Background Collage Workshop got underway today…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The process has several steps, and starts with selecting your ‘mosaic’ papers for the background…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then you need to consider their size, shape and placement on the page…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then…you get messy with the glue…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After ‘knocking back’ the background with a little judiciously applied paint…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Images are prepared for the next layer – you can re-purpose your own sketches, if you’re a drawer, or copy images from other sources if you’re not currently confident in drawing…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
